OK, I understand that, but are there any plan to forward integrate them
into 2.4.25? (or newer)?

Because it is much more easier to use a plain vanilla kernel than a kernel
with 103 patches. (except patches from 2.6)

BTW: I'm having major tcp troubles with the latest kernel (TX
performance), tested on 2 different network cards.
